The Arcania's Hero

A child whose fate is destined to bring peace. The man who's hailed as the hero of the humans. The one who's given the responsibility of protecting the human world from being consumed by the Lord of the Giants and Demons at an early age. His name is Isiah. He killed tens of thousands of the invading force of giants and demons and successfully protected earth for several years. At what cost? He had his freedom taken for having been given the responsibility of protecting the world. He kept on protecting the world for several years and finally stood in front of the strongest foe. The Lord of the Giants and Demons. The planet devourer. Their fight lasted for tens of hours until the fight ended with a draw. Both of them are on the verge of death. With Isiah in a worse state than the lord. "Is this worth it?" "Why am I fighting for the lives of people who are no different from the scumbags trying to consume the world?" "Why did I just accept my fate as the so-called 'hero'?" Many realizations hit him hard and regrets started to flood in like a dam. As he closed his eyes as an act of acceptance of his incoming death, he saw the void and the darkness of the afterlife. The emptiness he felt as he walked endlessly in this infinite darkness couldn't be put into words. ------------- sorry for the long ass synopsis.

Chapter 2 - Plans and Learnings

Its been a week since the phenomenon, aka my reincarnation. I've learned and confirmed a few things.

One is that, my name's Cali. Secondly, I've confirmed that the man before, is my dad. And the woman, obviously, is my mother. And I've learned their names too. The man is Felix and the woman is Thalia.

That's all that I learned and confirmed during the one week that I stayed here. Its actually kind of a struggle to even learn my name as I can't really understand the language that they are speaking.

So, I've decided that my most priority right now was to learn their language, because that would make things easier for me. My second priority is to accustom myself from the presence of my parents as it really felt unusual from their constant care. The third goal, obviously, is to learn about my environment, the world, the people, everything.

I have a theory that I'm not in the world that I know of from my previous life because of the language that they've spoken, from the clothings that they are wearing, and the ingredients that I've seen when my mother's cooking.

I travelled and learned everything about the world that I lived in my previous life so its pretty weird that almost everything around me were quite new to my sight.

I might have mistaken it and overthinking things, but a possibility is a possibility. It wouldn't hurt me to consider it, no?

So anyways, my first goal is to learn their language. So I should observe every word that they say and observe their facial expressions. I bet this would take me several months, huh.

Weeks passed by and nothing special happened. I familiarised myself with my new environment and lived as a baby. I slowly but surely started to understand words and finally could create sentences from the words that I've learned.

I practiced the said language tens of times in my head until it became natural. Of course, I have not yet learned the language fully as it required a few more months to finally master it. Nevertheless, I'm proud of my hardwork that it made me want to tear up because of the suffering I have to take here for not being able to understand the language spoken here.

Anyways, as I said, learning the language is the thing that would help me the most, and yep, I'm right. Because I have learned so much things since then.

First, I have learned that magic existed here too. Just like in my previous world. Well, however there's a difference to how they use magic.

In my previous life, people used magic with the help of some interface called the "System". You could just activate the magic by simply commanding and say the said magic that you wanted to activate and the spell would materialize in front of you.

In this world, however, you needed to chant. Yes, you need to say some random words that I couldn't understand the reason behind nor how it affected the materialization of the spell. You also needed to like use your hands while chanting. I guess I'll find out the reason behind all this when I grow up.

Still, it made me fascinated by the fact that the world that I'm in are not bound or controlled by the "System".

Now, the next thing I discovered was that the breathing technique that I used in my previous life kind of work here too. Its a basic breathing technique and its one of the foundation of my martial art and prowess in my previous life.

The ones who trained me were the ones who introduced me to the world of martial arts. With the sole reason that I have to go to the peak of martial arts and become the strongest close range fighter out there. Well, I wasn't able to become the strongest when it comes to pure martial art as I focused more on my sword technique and my magical powers in my past life.

But still, having a physique that completely overshadowed all the talented martial disciples, I'm still a force not to be reckoned with when it comes to martial arts as my teachers were one of the best.

Now, let's stop straying away from the topic, so yeah, the breathing technique that I used in my past life worked here. The breathing technique do not have anything special to it. It helps you clear your mind and relax every muscles from your body. Its like healing yourself out but much in a slower pace but is effective nonetheless.

Also, the breathing technique helps you gather worldly energy that came from the nature. Yes, if in magic we use mana and elements, then in martial arts we use energy and aura.

The energy that we gather from the nature is the one we use to materialize an aura. The difference between the two was that, the energy boosts our physique or physical abilities the more energy we have gathered from our lifetime, and the aura is the materialization of our energy that is gathered inside of our body.

So knowing all this, I did the breathing technique every morning and gathered energy as much as I can. Its a slow process, very slow to the point that I only gathered a very tiny amount of energy after 2 weeks of gathering since we're a child right now.

Its because that my body is too fragile to even handle a tiny amount of energy, that's why we also needed to train our bodies alongside the growth of our energy levels to handle the power, which I couldn't do at the moment so it is understandable that I couldn't handle any more than the energy that I have.

There's a few more things that I learned like my surname which is Arisson, which doesn't sound too bad. The two information that I have listed were the most important things that I have gathered since my reincarnation, the other learnings aren't that much important as much as those two.

Now, I should be focusing on my second priority which is to accustom and familiarize myself with the parental presence that took care of me every day. But I'm already comfortable with them around so lets skip the second one.

Also, if I have to judge my parents, it is that they are too affectionate and loving that it made me feel weird. But it doesn't mean that I don't like this feeling. Rather, I appreciate it even though its uncontrollable sometimes, if not for me being a baby, who knows how much I've suffered from their constant hugs and kisses.

Now, what I have to do was to observe my surroundings and try to learn as much as information as I could gather.

'Hmm, I can feel that my second life would be quite fun, huh.' I thought inwardly. I closed my eyes and slept as its already night time

sorry for the fast pace and information dump. Also, I apologize if you can't understand the explanation as I need more experience and I'm not really good at explaining lol. Thanks for reading the chapter!!!
